505 [Tanaris, Time Puzzle]
The scorching sun is in the sky, and there are no clouds in the sky.
The harsh sun scorches the desert.
This is a vast sea of sand, and the edge can't be seen at a glance.In the steaming heat wave, the scenery was distorted, and the three or two oases dotted at the end of the field of vision turned into a blur of green.
Occasionally, a breeze blows, and dust rises from the top of the sand hills, surging layer by layer like waves of sand, peeling off layer after layer.
Angmar walked toward the southeast.
This sand sea is located in the southwest of the ancient Kalimdor continent, bordering Un'Goro Crater to the west, which was cited as a secondary ecological experimental site by the guardians, and the Uldum region guarded by the Tol'vir clan to the south.
History has never accurately recorded the origin of this desert.
Maybe it was once a lush green field with fertile water and soil, or maybe it has been like this since the time of the Order.
However, Angmar prefers the former. It was external forces that changed the ecological environment of this place and made it what it is today.
Thousands of years ago, in order to resist the Thor who attempted to invade the Forge of Origin, the Tolvir clan had to activate part of the functions of this ancient creation device, resulting in an astonishing explosion of energy.
The destructive energy that swept across the earth purified all life around it.Even though Thor possessed unparalleled power, he could not escape the purifying power of the Origin Furnace and died on the spot.
Since then, Uldum has been a barren wasteland.Perhaps the sea of sand beneath our feet was also affected by that incident.
In later generations it would be known as Tanaris.Greedy goblins will establish settlements here to ensure control of the South China Sea.
The Sandfury clan, a branch of the Gurubashi trolls, will also hide in their capital Zul'Farrak, which has become increasingly desolate due to the war with the ancient and night elf empires.
Angmar wants to change ancient history and create a favorable situation for the ultimate war in future generations.Although he has made the decision to continue to repair the variables he caused in the next 1 years to ensure that history evolves steadily towards the world environment in which he was born, even if there are thousands of possible timelines to read, Aman'Thul's This matter is also extremely difficult even if the eyes help each other.
After all, there are too many time points. With Angmar's own strength, he will inevitably face the dilemma of being overwhelmed and unable to do what he wants. He needs backup.
So he came to Tanaris, the home of the bronze dragons.
If he can convince these bronze dragons to unite under the command of Time Guardian Nozdormu and observe and guard the stable operation of the timeline, his plan will have more guarantees.
But Angmar was very uneasy.
The fundamental reason is that he doesn't know what kind of attitude the Bronze Dragon Clan will show towards himself who is about to change the course of history in this timeline that has been reset to its original appearance by his future self.
The direct reason was that he didn't know whether the current Bronze Dragon King, Nozdormu, the Guardian of Time, was trapped in the turbulence of time.
If Nozdormu was not here, he would probably not be able to convince ordinary bronze dragon members who did not have a good understanding of the timeline.
Then
What was the original history like?
It's a mystery.
no one knows.
Just because of the creator's "eating books" and "self-slapping".
Due to his own experience, he already knew that this concrete world has not fallen into self-contradiction due to the "creator" repeatedly slapping himself in the face and eating books.
But this leads to Angmar losing its advantage as a time traveler once it reaches certain ambiguous historical nodes.He had no idea what logical details the world would present.
For example, we are currently facing the mystery of whether Nozdormu is trapped.
As for the reason why Nozdormu was trapped, it involves three editions of settings.
In the first version of the setting, the Old God was far stronger than Sargeras, and even had enough power to interfere with the normal operation of the timeline.
Under the premise that ancient history has become an established fact, they disturbed the timeline, trying to make Sargeras arrive in advance, and use the power of the fallen titan to weaken their own cage in order to regain their freedom.
Nozdormu became aware of the Ancient God's conspiracy and went to investigate, but was severely injured by the Ancient God's tentacles rising from the Well of Eternity. As a last resort, Nozdormu sent the "Three Travelers" back to ancient times. to correct historical disturbances.
The second version of the setting accurately determines the strength of the Ancient God and Sargeras.To put it simply, the Old Gods have changed from an "ancient threat" to a "light and dark sensitive parasitic community" sent by the void forces to corrupt the souls of the Titans in Azeroth. They are far weaker than the Titans.
The story about Sargeras and the Titans has also begun to become more complete. Sargeras has also changed from a demon lord to a fallen Titan who is determined to destroy the infinite in advance to cut off the possibility of void corruption.
Once this version of the setting was implemented, the history of the trio of time-travelers participating in the ancient war became full of contradictions.
The ancient gods couldn't hide in time, so how could they let Sargeras descend smoothly?Because this fallen titan will destroy all of Azeroth effortlessly, wiping them out like a bug.
So this piece of history was eaten by the mysterious "creator" himself.
If you eat it, you will eat it. This is not a big deal. At most, it will only cause some complaints from those seeking knowledge.
But with the emergence of the third edition setting, the "creator" slapped himself hard once again.
During the Cataclysm, the Bronze Dragon once again sought help from "adventurers".Send some of them back to ancient times and ask them to help you repair the tampered timeline.
At certain points in time, players actually saw the trio of time travellers.
Hasn’t this history been abolished?
After the settings are perfected, those ancient gods have no motive to let the Burning Legion come in advance, let alone commit suicide to disturb the timeline.Nozdormu will naturally not be trapped, let alone send the trio of time travelers back to ancient times to repair the non-existent time disturbance.
Although all kinds of evidence have shown that it is the content of official history, the "adventurers" who have long been accustomed to it still come up with reasonable explanations on their own.
Due to the gameplay, Bronze Dragon sends us to another timeline, which has nothing to do with official history.
As a result, when the Legion came back, everyone was dumbfounded.
In revealing the ancient illusions and legends, the "adventurers" once again saw the trio of time-travelers.This time it has nothing to do with the Bronze Dragon, it is truly official historical content.
What is this going to do?
Is it so satisfying to slap yourself in the face?
When he first returned to ancient times, Angmar had no such worries.He knows that "he" has participated in ancient history, and he also knows that in the future, he will eventually become an omnipotent "prophet" who can freely travel through various timelines.
Regardless of whether Nozdormu is trapped in the turbulence of time, as an observer of time, the bronze dragon must be aware of the existence of the "Prophet".You won't have many problems if you contact them yourself.
As the future self completely resets this period of history and turns it into a canonical history without his participation, the mystery of the "creator" who has been reading books and constantly slapping himself in the face has become the biggest problem before him.
Angmar was worried that the bronze dragon would treat him as the same existence as the eternal dragon clan that destroyed the timeline, even though he was not hindered by any bronze dragon in the three years of changing the history of Pandaria.
